Abstract excerpt
Analysis of specific somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) using multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) is used routinely as a prognostic test for uveal melanoma (UM). This technique requires relatively large amounts of input DNA, unattainable from many small fine-needle aspirate biopsy specimens. Herein, we compared the use of MLPA with whole-genome amplification (WGA) combined with low-pass...
